What you can do or think you can do, begin it.
For boldness has magic, power, and genius in it.

It is an important and popular fact that things are not always what they seem.
For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much – the wheel, New York, wars, and so on – whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time.
But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man – for precisely the same reasons.

For a “big picture” view of what the metaverse has in mind, take a look at A Canticle For Leibowitz by Walter M. Miller, Jr. (1959).

Winding backroads to Morgan Hill and Gilroy along Calero Reservoir south of San Jose are fun for motorcycle riders, and across the water are trails ideal for mountain bikers.

Eastern Sierra in the far distance. Back in 2007, M & I hiked all day in the scorching heat trying to reach Papoose Flat, where those little sharp peaks are in the distance (left of center). Had to turn around because the sun was beginning to set. Made it back to the car just in time before our water ran out.

Landscape
Love? I will tell thee what it is to love! It is to build with human thoughts a shrine, where hope sits brooding like a beauteous dove; where time seems young, and life a thing divine. All tastes, all pleasures, all desires combine to consecrate this sanctuary of bliss. Above, the stars in cloudless beauty shine; around, the streams their flowery margins kiss; and if there’s heaven on earth, that heaven is surely this.
Charles Swain (1801 – 1874)

This was a three hour dirt-ride into the Inyo National Forest off of Death Valley Road east of Big Pine.
There was a moment when I felt there was no return.
